I wanted to write something related to everything around the club. But then I was thinking like wtf am I doing. Like anyone would give a damn thing. Or something will change. Cheers.

You can bring in Guardiola and Sarri as assistant coach nothing would change. Only formation. Too many wrong players in the squad. This is why Pep rejected us at first place. Last 2 summer transfer windows were the definition of human stupidity. Spending +£400m mostly on squad players. For that amount of money we should look like Real Madrid on (at their best) and off the field (on the paper). Thanks god on Antonio Conte. He upgraded almost every player to the possibly maximum level. And most of them are limited and one dimensional. Shame he didn’t get his first team targets. I don’t know. Don’t expect him to stay because it’s Roman’s toy. But definitely people should show more respect to Antonio for what he’s done and he is still doing with this average team.

I don’t blame Conte because he has to have top players at first place, on (almost) every position. I can’t blame the man for running average team with couple of great players. I blame Roman Abramovich. It’s almost 2018. and last time Chelsea meant something in CL was like +10 years ago. Since 2010 we are PL farmers in CL. Why in CL? Because when you are good enough for the CL you are good enough for domestic competitions. We are shit. No identity, no strategy, every little we have new coach, players rejecting us BIG... Nobody is getting sacked. Very poor managing from Mr. Abramovich. He literally turned Chelsea into Arsenal FC. We are fighting for a CL spot. His philosophy is better spend + £200m on 10 players then on 3-4 very top with an immediate impact. Why? Because his farm works super good for him and his pocket. Shame. This club turned wrong from the road.

“Only” 9 matches and 11 points behind. I don’t know, but to me Chelsea is looking poor, without plan B and very boring to watch... Big part goes to Conte but even bigger goes on Roman Abramovic because he didn’t provide better players and much competitive team. This project ,with so many defenders and counter attacking football, already looking dead.

According to mephobia (99% accuracy)!

Chelsea unfortunately lost his place in football and abandoned an idea from 2002/3 to become if not the best in Europe then among top 4 teams in CL. Today maybe not even in top 10. So many different coaches and some (a lot) very bad decisions in selection of players for years. CFC still spending good but not enough. I don’t think Chelsea fans wants Chelsea to become Real Madrid but to be where CFC was 10 years ago, competitive and among the very best. Another thing makes me angry, well, Antonio Conte and his idea of playing only 5 at the back and counter attacking football. Not helping at all. Not even Juventus use that formation (couple of times) because it doesn’t work against every team, plus always missing an extra midfielder to dominate. I don’t know. PL doesn’t look that poor to me like for the last couple of years. Just can’t see the way for Chelsea to pull that lucky rabbit from the 🎩 again. It’s just not the same quality of PL for doing that. At the end of the day all ways leads to Roman Abramovich, not the Board. Cheers

Zappacosta is not even a first team choice at Torino for RB position.

3:0 or 4:0 for Spurs, easily!

Yep that's pretty much that..

I wouldn't say he implicates only for LFC. We were interested in him 2 months ago but didn't want to pay £70m. Interesting stuff you could read between the lines last couple of weeks one and of them we never left the table actually just waiting for the right moment and them to cut the price. I would be more scared if he goes to City.

He's not a natural LB. Spinazzola will play on left side, he reminds a little of Zambrotta. People suggest if Juve sell Sandro and sign Joao Cancelo (looks like it's just a matter of time before becomes official) that RB will be Joao Cancelo and LB De Sciglio.

Literally nothing. RaiSport journalists was speaking for La Domenica Sportiva about controversial situation with Dybala and Sandro. His opinion: Dybala is staying (even Marotta said no way he's going days ago, twice) and about Sandro he (journalist) said how Alex plans to stay in Italy and further could lead to some kind of contact/ engagement. Pretty much horse 💩. Until Beppe personally say no freakin' way........ He didn't and it's August🤞

For those who ask about Spinazzola..

Misquoted

Simon Johnson said yesterday net spend an issue now for Chelsea and that's why Conte didn't get players he wanted at first place (for the second year). What scares me is the club will waist what Conte did for this club, team and the fans last season (already doing that). It's August and he's far from being happy, tension he's been caring so easy to see, players looks strange and nervous too. Currently, things looks bad and injuries (Hazard and Baka) doesn't help at all. With lack of top additions Conte (in)directly said that we don't expect good results in CL this season. About PL we'll try, work hard and hope for the good. Season just started with CS and today looks bad but tomorrow just some great players might arrive and everything could change.🤞It's realy bizarre situation at Chelsea FC considering we won PL title 3 months ago. Yeah, bizarre is the word.

I know about the guy on twitter who reported same thing about Baka days before Baka actually signed, same goes with Kante last year. His friend (source) works in Canary Wharf, they do finances of people worth min £500k. So he was reliable so far about those two. He's CFC fan so he would easily report that on his account, epically. Maybe you have different dude (source)😂 I can't tell if it's true but some kid said apparently his father who works in hotel saw Conte and Sandro together! Probably fake but it wouldn't be fair to keep such a information only for myself. Ps: Conte was at Wembley against Spurs.

Riccardo Trevisani Sky Sport Italy: "I can't imagine Alex Sandro at Chelsea but the pressing Juve are doing for Spinazzola makes me think......." By the way, some reports are saying it's a matter of hours for Juventus to sign Joao Cancelo from Valencia who is RB but can play as LB too.

Conte on Matic sale to United: " You have to ask the club ". Ouch!

If CFC finally decides to stay with Moses and Azpi on the RWB's that means Rudiger, Luiz, Cahil and Andreas are our CB's. This is 4 players for 3 spots. Definitely a new CB will arrive. It all depends on are we're going for FB's or only one (the promised one)? Maybe CFC was waiting for a lower price, and now is the time. Next week it will be very interesting. 🍿🍿

It's not matter of IF but WHEN we're going to conclude 3-4 players. Absolutely agree with people here that, 4-5 players (without GK) out of 7-8 we will sign this summer, should have been CFC players way before August considering injuries and the fact we're selling our star players with all the loans but who knows what's going inside the club. I certainly don't. Conte knows and that's why he's unhappy and clearly shows that to everyone (in)directly while transmitting negative energy (in direction to the club, players and fans) not because he's behavior is childish but because lack of quantity and quality in players he is getting and he's getting players very slow. And yes that could cost us big but hope not. Players we're connected with are: 1) Barkley (rumors saying if not this weekend then next week we'll try to close the deal and get him) 2) Alex Sandro (rumors saying when Juve take Spinazzola back they will sell for £70 + odds, everything will be done in 24-48h) 2) Ox (rumors saying he didn't decide and still wait to see if CFC are going to buy another RB) 4) Renato Sanches (rumors saying he's still our big wish and we'll wait for his and Bayern decision, maybe until the end of August) First 4 are our main targets. 5) Drinkwater (reports saying it's fake news with purpose to make one of our targets and their clubs decide faster in our favor, probably Barkley and Sanches) 6) Llorente (for now just a rumor) 3/4 from our list will certainly arrive by reports and sources, maybe all 4. Let's buy some 🍿 and chill a little because it's August and it's big lottery now, nobody can guarantee you what you're going to get. It depends on how strong contacts you've been made already with your targets and their clubs, plus lions (pounds) on the table. A lots of zeros. ✌🏻

With all due respect to everyone on this forum and outside, I strongly believe season ticket holders at the Bridge doesn't want to see their kids being constantly loaned or sold for Drinkwater kind of players.
